Have you ever had the opportunity to share your testimony or explain the gospel to a Muslim? If so, you have probably realised that simply presenting the essential points of the gospel is not enough to win them over.
Booklets such as The Bridge, The Four Spiritual Laws, Two Ways of Living and Knowing God Personally are very effective tools for explaining the gospel to Muslims. However, be prepared. Once you’ve explained using these materials, you’ve just begun. The Lord is sovereign, He can do anything. But I have rarely heard of a Muslim praying to receive Christ immediately after hearing about the Four Laws. There are important questions about the very nature of God, about Christ and about the Bible that require serious reflection and that a Muslim needs to understand.
Someone might say: ‘Why not simply add these different concepts as an appendix to The Four Spiritual Laws and distribute them?’ It’s a good idea, but it would be ignoring a very important dimension: everything in Islamic culture is based on social relationships. Absolutely everything!
